IN THE living room of Harshit Rana’s house in Northwest Delhi’s Ghevra village are two trophies the fast bowler won for bowling quick in the IPL. “This one is my favourite,” his father Pradeep points at a gold plaque Harshit won for cranking 146 kph in the IPL final against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Chennai.
